Andrew Rannells is in the throngs of promoting his new memoir Too Much is Not Enough, and during a recent stop on Late Night with Seth Meyers, revealed that the book might just have a bit too much sex in it for his mother.
The former Girls star spoke about the note he wrote at the book’s beginning, directed at his mother. “I just said if she had any questions about what anything was or what terms were, she should ask my younger sister Natalie,” he explained to Meyers. “I just told her, ’Look, if you get to a chapter and there’s, like, too many d*cks in it, just skim ahead. You don’t need to read all of it.”

Meyers even jokingly mused that Rannells could have printed a special copy for his mother. “You should be like, ‘I’m going to print you up your own copy where things will be different fonts. And if you see that font, just flip ahead.'”
Rannells also addressed the book’s sexual content on an episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last week. “I talk about having a lot of sex and stuff, so I don’t think they probably want to hear about that,” he shared of his family’s reactions. “Now they know!”

Rannells’ new book has a lot of people talking. In it, he revealed, that as a teenager he was sexually assaulted by a priest during confession and later again at his high school graduation.
“He stood up and pulled me up with him,” Rannells writes about the first incident. “He hugged me tightly. I felt safe and heard and understood. Then, with unexpected force, he kissed me. On the lips. He muscled his tongue into my mouth and held the back of my head still. Then he released me and made the sign of the cross on my forehead. He smiled.”
After the assault, Rannells chose to leave the Catholic Church and his home state of Nebraska for a new life in New York City.
